CHOICE  FLOWER  SEEDS-General  List

OST  flowering  plants  will  live  in  almost  any  soil,  but  to  give  them  a fair  chance  to 
develop,  some  care  should  be  taken  to  make  the  ground  suited  to  their  needs.  The 
soil  best  adapted  for  flowering  plants  generally  is  a light,  friable  loam,  containing  a 
sufficient  amount  of  sand  to  render  it  porous.  Many  flowers  are  better  if  produced 
on  plants  of  vigorous  growth,  hence  a portion  of  the  garden  should  be  prepared  by 
deep  digging,  thorough  pulverization  and  liberal  enriching  with  large  quantities  of  well- 
rotted  manure.  Since  some  other  varieties  produce  the  largest  and  flnest  colored  flowers 
when  grown  on  rather  light,  poor  soil,  a portion  of  the  garden  should  not  be  enriched. 
While  some  seeds  need  special  treatment,  the  following  general  rules  will  apply  to  all. 
Make  the  surface  of  the  soil  as  flne,  smooth  and  level  as  possible;  do  not  plant  when  the 
ground  is  wet;  cover  each  lot  of  seeds  to  a uniform  depth,  which  should  not  be  more  than 
four  to  six  times  the  diameter  of  the  seed;  press  the  soil  firmly  over  the  seed;  plant  in  rows 
so  that  the  starting  plants  can  be  seen  easily;  thin  out  the  young  plants  to  prevent  crowd- 
ing and  keep  entirely  free  from  weeds.

Plants  are  generally  known  and  described  as  Annuals,  Biennials,  and  Perennials.  The  term  annual  is 
applied  to  plants  which  flower  and  ripen  their  seeds  the  same  season.  Hardy  annuals  are  those  which  may  be 
sowm  in  the  open  ground4  Half  hardy  annuals  are  those  which  should  be  started  in  the  house  and  trans- 
planted to  the  garden.  The  term  biennial  is  applied  to  plants  which  flower  the  second  season  after  planting 
and  then  perish.  The  term  perennial  to  plants  W'hich  flower  the  second  season  after  planting,  and  continue 


to  flower  year  after  year.

One  of  the  very  best 
Annuals  for  cut-flowers 


The  Aster  is  of  easy  culture  and  very  popular.  Plants  from  seed  sown  ir  the  open  ground  in  May  bloom 
finely  in  September  and  October.  For  July  and  August  flowers  sow  in  March  er  April  in  cold  frame,  spent  hot- 
bed. or  in  pots  or  boxes  in  the  house.  Cover  the  seeds  about  half  an  inch  deep  with  rich,  light  soil,  and  when 
the  plants  have  three  or  four  leaves  transplant  about  18  inches  apart  each  wiy  into  well  prepared  beds.  Ma- 
nures too  fresh  or  used  in  too  large  quantities  sometimes  induce  disease  in  Asters.  When  used  they  should 
be  thoroughly  well  decayed  and  mixed  with  the  soil.  Small  quantities  of  slaked  lime  or  fresh  wood-ashes 
stirred  into  the  surface  of  the  Aster  beds  form  good  tonics  for  the  plants  and  keep  disease  and  insects  from 
the  roots.

PANSIES 


Pansy,  or  Heartsease.  Too  much  importance  cannot  be  attached  to  the  culture  of  these  beautiful  plants, 
flowering  as  they  do  in  great  abundance  for  several  months.  When  sown  in  the  early  spring  a good  display  in 
most  cases  can  be  had  in  the  following  fall,  but  the  best  results  are  not  obtained  by  so  doing.  To  obtain  fine 
blooms  it  is  better  to  sow  during  sumiher  and  transplant  the  seedlings  in  cold  frames  in  September,  protect- 
ing during  the  winter  with  mats  or  shutters.  Pansies  delight  in  a cool,  moist,  well  drained  soil,  enriched 
with  decomposed  barn-yard  manure.  They  should  never  be  allowed  to  suffer  for  want  of  water.

I SUPERIOR  VEGETABLE  SEEDS  j 

THE  CENTAL  SYSTEM— IMPORTANT  ANNOUNCEMENT 

In  tliis  issue  of  our  catalogue  we  shall  continue  to  use  the  Cental  System  which  was  adopted  hy  us  in  our 
1919  issue.  The  old  method  of  selling  seed  by  the  pint,  quart,  peck,  bushel,  or  fractions  thereof  is  hereby  dis- 
continued, Seeds  will  hereafter  be  quoted  by  the  pound  and  hundred  pounds.  You  will  find  it  more  accurate, 
more  fair,  and  more  sensible  than  the  old  method  of  buying  by  the  pint,  peck,  or  bushel.  Recommendations 
as  to  quantity  to  sow  will  be  made  on  the  pound  basis  instead  of  by  measure. 

There  are  several  reasons  for  this  change. 

1.  The  weight  of  a bushel  of  one  kind  of  seed  is  practically  never  the  same  as  that  of  another  kind  of 
seed.  Even  the  weights  of  two  single  bushels  of  the  same  commodity  may  differ,  due  to  difference  in  size  of 
the  individual  seeds,  vegetables,  or  whatever  makes  up  the  bushel.  The  old  system  was,  therefore,  unavoid- 
ably inexact,  frequently  inaccurate,  and  never  quite  fair  to  both  buyer  and  seller. 

2.  The  new  method  is  exact,  accurate,  and  fair  to  all. 

3.  The  new  system  permits  of  quicker,  more  accurate,  parcel-post  rating. 

4.  The  Cental  System,  long  used  in  Europe,  is  the  coming  method  of  selling  seeds,  vegetables,  foods, 
etc.  It  has  already  been  adopted  by  law  in  several  states.

ASPARAGUS 

German, — Gpargel.  French, — Asperge. 

Spanish, — Esparragos. 

One  ounce  for  60  feet  of  drill. 

A convenient  bed  is  about  six  feet  wide,  with  a path 
two  feet  wide  on  each  side.  This  will  require  six 
rows  one  foot  apart,  and  a bed  of  that  width  50  feet 
will  be  ample  for  an  ordinary  family,  requiring  about 


one  pound  of  seed.  It  will  require  about  three  years 
from  the  time  of  sowing  until  the  bed  is  in  full  bear- 
ing, but  once  established,  it  is  good  for  twenty  years. 


It  should  be  sown  in  drills  one  foot  apart,  and  when 
the  plants  are  four  or  five  inches  high  they  should  be 
thinned  out  so  that  the  plants  will  be  nine  inches  apart 
from  each  other  in  all  the  rows.  Great  care  must  be 
taken  for  the  first  year  to  keep  down  all  weeds  as  soon 
as  they  appear,  else  they  will  choke  and  destroy  the 
young  seedling  Asparagus.  The  deeper  the  soil  and 
the  more  manure  used,  the  greater  will  be  the  crop. 

Conover’s  Colossal.  The  best  known,  and  one  of  the 
most  desirable  sorts.  Pkt.,  .10;  oz.,  .20;  ^4  lb.,  .60 

Palmetto.  Shoots  are  very  large  and  light  green, 
also  tender  and  very  desirable  for  the  market  and 
home  garden.  Very  quick  in  growth,  with  close, 
round-topped  shoots.  Pkt.,  .10;  oz.,  .20;  % lb.,  .60 

Asparagus  Roots 

A saving  of  one  or  two  years  is  effected  by  planting 
roots.  These  offered  below  are  strong,  two-year-old 
roots,  and  the  proper  size  for  testing.  These  roots  are 
not  carried  in  stock  but  will  be  shipped  direct  from 
the  growers.  Prices  on  the  following  varieties  will  be 
quoted  on  application.

Barr’s  Mammotli  and  Palmetto.

BEANS 

Dwarf  or  Bush 

German, — Bohnen.  French, — Haricot. 

Spanish, — Frijole  nano. 

Two  pounds  to  100  feet  in  drills  or  150  hills;  two 
bushels  to  the  acre  in  drills. 

A succession  of  sowing  can  be  made  from  the  first 
week  in  May  until  August.  Plant  in  drills  about  two 
inches  deep,  and  from  eighteen  inches  to  two  feet 
apart,  according  to  the  richness  of  the  soil;  the  poorer 
the  soil  the  closer  they  can  be  planted.  The  seeds 
should  be  dropped  about  two  inches  apart. 

Add  .06  per  Lb.;  each  additional  pound  add  .01  if 
to  be  sent  by  mail.

Pole  or  Running' 

German, — Stangen  Bohnen.  Spanish, — Judias. 

French — Haricot  a Rames. 

One  Pound  to  150  hills. 

These  are  more  tender  and  require  rather  more  care 
in  culture  than  the  Bush  Beans,  and  should  be  sown 
two  weeks  later.  They  succeed  best  in  sand  loam, 
which  should  be  liberally  enriched  with  short  manure 
in  the  hills,  which  are  formed,  according  to  the  vari- 
ety, from  three  to  four  feet  apart.  From  five  to  six 
seeds  are  planted  in  each  hill,  about  two  inches  deep. 

Rough  cedar  or  similar  poles  about  seven  or  eight 
feet  long  should  be  used  for  these  to  climb  on.  The 
poles  should  be  set  in  the  ground  at  least  eighteen 
inches,  so  as  to  prevent  being  blown  over.

fleshy  and  entirely  stringless.  When  young  they  have 
a rich,  buttery  flavor,  which  is  retained  until  they  are

BEET 

German, — Runtel  Rube.  French, — Betterave. 

Spanish, — Beteraga. 

A rather  light  soil,  well  enriched,  is  best  suited  to 
the  cultivation  of  the  various  beets.  The  mangels  and 
sugar  beets  in  particular,  require  very  liberal  manur- 
ing. For  an  early  crop  of  table  beets,  sow  the  seed 
as  early  as  the  ground  is  in  condition  to  work;  light 
frosts  will  not  injure  the  young  plants.  For  a main 
crop,  sow  the  first  of  May;  and  for  winter  beets,  the 
last  of  June.  Sow  in  drills,  12  to  15  inches  apart,  and 
about  one  inch  deep,  pressing  the  earth  firmly  upon 


the  seed, — a very  important  matter.  Use  about  six 
pounds  of  seed  per  acre,  1 oz.  50  feet.  Thin  out  when 
the  plants  are  large  enough.  The  varieties  for  table 
use  should  be  left  three  or  four  inches  apart.

BRUSSELS  SPROUTS 

(Species  of  cabbage;  cultivation  the  same) 
German, — Rofen-Kohl.  French, — Chou  de  Bruxelles. 

Spanish, — Berza  de  Brussels. 

One  ounce  will  sow  a bed  of  forty  square  feet,  and 
produce  about  3,000  plants. 

This  is  a delicious  vegetable,  superior  to  either 
borecole  or  spinach.  The  small,  cabbage-like  heads 
which  grow  upon  the  stem  are  much  improved  by  a 
moderate  frost.  Sow  in  hotbeds  in  March  or  April, 
and  in  the  open  ground  in  May. 

Dwarf  Improved.  Produces  excellent,  compact 
sprouts;  very  sure  cropper. 

Pkt.,  .10;  oz.,  .20;  ^4  lb.,  .75 

CABBAGE 

German, — Kopf-Kohl.  French, — Chou  Pomme. 

Spanish, — Berza. 

One  ounce  of  seed  produces  about  3,000  plants. 

Early  varieties  are  grown  from  seed  sown  in  hot- 
beds in  February  or  March,  only  moderate  bottom 
heat  being  required.  Transplant  into  other  frames 
without  much,  if  any,  bottom  heat,  as  soon  as  the 
plants  show  the  fourth  leaf.  In  April,  or  as  soon  as 
the  ground  can  be  easily  worked,  set  out  in  rows  three 
feet  apart,  and  about  eighteen  inches  between  the 
plants.  The  ground  should  be  thoroughly  stirred  with 
cultivator  and  hoed  every  week  till  the  plants  cover 
the  ground.  For  a fall  crop,  sow  in  the  open  ground 


in  May,  in  hills  the  proper  distance  apart,  using  a lib- 
eral quantity  of  manure  in  the  hill,  besides  that  which 
is  plowed  in;  thin  out  to  one  good  plant  in  each  hill. 
In  the  same  way  crops  may  be  sown  to  lay  in  for  the 
winter  use,  planting  seeds  as  late  as  July  1.  Seeds 
can  also  be  sown  in  shallow  drills  when  the  plants  are 
large  enough,  can  be  transplanted,  setting  the  plants 
in  rows  three  feet  apart  and  two  feet  apart  in  the  row. 
If  the  young  plants  are  troubled  with  the  cabbage  fly, 
sprinkle  them  with  tobacco  dust,  air-slaked  lime,  slug- 
shot  or  wood  ashes,  while  the  dew  is  on  them.  To 
keep  off  the  cabbage  worm,  sprinkle  with  Dalmatian 
insect  powder  or  Bug  Death. 


Danish  Ball  Head 

The  wide  and  unfailing  popularity  of  the  Danish 
Ball  Head  cabbage  is  simply  wonderful.  It  seems  to 
adapt  itself  to  all  soils  and  conditions. 

The  leading  characteristics  of  the  Danish  Ball  Head 
cabbage  are:  First,  that  it  is  a sure  header;  second, 
that  it  is  of  unapproachable  solidity  and  weight; 
third,  that  it  is  an  extra  good  keeper;  and  fourth, 
that  it  is  a good  seller. 

It  is  a medium  to  late  cabbage,  but  is  generally 
grown  as  a late  crop.  It  is  sure  to  head,  the  heads 
being  round,  hard  and  extremely  heavy,  though  not 
extra  large.  It  can  be  grown  in  close  quarters,  on 
account  of  its  compact  habit.

Enkhuizen  Glory.  It  is  an  early  cabbage,  but  still 
of  large  size,  solid  and  of  the  best  quality.  It  is  one 
of  the  largest  early  cabbages  we  have  seen,  and  may 
be  set  out  as  late  as  the  last  of  July  or  first  of  August 
in  this  latitude,  and  will  make  large,  fine  heads  for 
late  fall  or  winter  use.  The  great  merit  of  this  cab- 
bage lies  in  the  perfect  uniformity  of  its  growth. 


The  plants  are  compact,  have  few  outside  leases, 
can  be  planted  close  together,  and  will  produce,  a 
very  large  crop.  Pkt.,  .10;  .oz.,  .40;  H lb.,  $1.50 

CARROT 

German, — Rhore.  French, — Garrotte. 

Spanish, — Zanahoria. 

One  ounce  will  sow  100  feet  of  diTll;  3 pounds  re- 
quired for  an  acre. 

Carrots  require  a very  finely  pulverized  soil  to  grow 
them  to  perfection.  A good,  light  and  well-enriched 
sandy  loam  is  the  best  for  this  crop.  For  field  culture, 
sow  in  drills  2 feet  apart,  so  as  to  cultivate  by 
horse.  Market  gardeners  sow  in  drills  about  15  inches 
apart  and  cultivate  by  hand.  For  early  crops  cover 
inch  deep,  and  thin  to  6 inches  apart  in  the  rows; 
for  late,  cover  % inch  deep  and  thin  to  4 inches.

CAULIFLOWER 

German, — Blumenkohl  Spanish, — Coliflor 

French, — Chou-fleur. 

One  ounce  of  seed  will  produce  1,500  to  2,000 
plants  if  sown  in  open  ground,  or  about  3,000  in 
frames. 

To  raise  good  Cauliflower  there  is  nothing  so  essen- 
tial to  success  as  good  seed.  The  best  Cauliflower 
seed  is  very  expensive,  but  it  is  worth  to  the  grower 
ten  times  as  much  as  cheap  and  carelessly  grown 
seeds.  The  best  results  are  obtained  from  using  Snow- 
ball for  main  late  crop,  as  well  as  for  early  use. 

Early  Cauliflower  are  difficult  to  raise  and  are  not 
of  the  best  quality,  but  when  the  plants  are  set  out  in 
July  and  the  heads  form  in  October,  there  is  no  diffi- 
culty in  getting  fine,  large  heads  of  first-class  quality. 
The  seed  should  be  sown  in  open  ground  or  cold 
frames  about  the  middle  of  May  or  first  of  June,  on 
good  soil.  When  plants  are  large  enough,  transplant 
to  rich,  moist  soil.  These  remarks  refer  to  Snowball 
for  main  late  crop,  as  well  as  for  early  use. 

Henderson’s  Early  Snowball.  This  is  undoubtedly 
the  finest  ever  introduced.  It  is  the  earliest  and  pro- 
duces beautiful  snow  white  heads  of  the  most  delicious 
flavor.  The  seed  we  offer  is  pure  and  genuine,  and 
sure  to  prove  satisfactory.  Pkt.,  .20;  oz.,  $2.50 

Extra  Selected  Dwarf  Early  Erfurt.  The  finest 
strain  of  the  Erfurt  Cauliflower;  almost  as  early  as 
the  Snowball;  grows  about  15  inches  high;  producing 
very  solid,  pure  white  heads  of  the  very  finest  quality; 
seldom  fails  to  form  a good  sized  head.

CELERY 

German, — Sellerie  French, — Celeri  Spanish, — Apio 

One  ounce  will  produce  3,000  plants 
Sow  seed  the  first  or  second  week  in  April  in  hot- 
bed or  cold  frame.  As  soon  as  the  plants  have  at- 
tained a height  of  three  inches  transplant,  setting 
them  four  inches  apart.  As  fall  approaches  draw 
earth  up  to  the  plants,  keeping  the  stalks  well  to- 
gether. When  well  blanched  it  is  ready  for  use. 
Some  of  the  varieties,  such  as  Golden  Self-Blanching 
and  White  Plume,  may  be  blanched  by  simply  placing 


a board  12  to  15  inches  wide  on  edge  on  each  side  of 
the  row.

White  Plume.  A variety  that  can  be  more  easily 
grown  than  any  other,  as  it  does  not  require  high 
banking  to  blanch  the  stalks.  Simply  earthing  up 
enough  to  keep  the  stalks  together  or  by  passing  a 
string  around  each  plant  is  sufficient.

CORN— Sugar 

German,-Welfchkorn.  Spanish,-Maiz.  French,-Mais. 

One  Half  Pound  will  plant  50  hills;  12  Poimds  >vill 
plant  one  acre  in  hills. 

Corn  requires  a good  soil  and  a warm  situation. 
Commence  for  first  early  by  planting  the  early  varie- 
ties about  May  1,  and  if  a continuous  supply  is  wanted 
all  summer,  make  plantings  about  two  weeks  apart 
from  May  1 until  the  last  of  July,  first  planting  early 
varieties,  then  later  ones.  Plant  in  rows  3 feet  apart, 
and  make  the  hills  about  the  same  distance  apart  in 
the  rows.  Five  kernels  in  the  hills  are  plenty.  Cover 
about  1 inch  deep  for  early  and  a little  deeper  for  late. 
Thin  to  3 plants  in  a hill.  Add  6 cents  per  lb.  and  for 
each  additional  lb.  to  the  same  address  add  Ic,  if  to 
be  sent  by  mail.

tenderness.  Lb.,  .20;  2 lbs.,  .35;  12  lbs.,  $2.00 

Golden  Bantam.  The  fact  that  the  grains  of  this 
variety  are  yellow  is  an  indication  of  hardiness  and  its 
value  for  early  planting  and  early  maturity.  It  is  a 
rapid  grower,  and  produces  ears  measuring  about  5 
Inches,  but  the  smallness  of  ears  is  fully  made  up  by 
the  deliciously  sweet  flavor  and  tender  quality  of  the 
corn  when  cooked.  It  is  a fine  variety  for  the  home 
garden.  ^ lb.,  .15;  lb.,  .25;  2 lbs.,  .40;  12  lbs.,  $2.00

Red  Cob.  A very  large-growing  white  dent  corn, 
with  red  cob.  Fodder  sweet,  juicy  and  tender.  Very 
popular  in  northern  dairy  districts. 

Sanford.  A well-known  variety,  adapted  to  the 
whole  of  New  England.  Kernels  silvery  white  flint 


ensilage  corn. 

Eureka.  One  of  the  tallest  and  best  ensilage  corns 
grown.  Grows  very  tall  and  is  very  productive  of  ears 
and  leaves.  For  the  silo  this  corn  is  rarely  equalled. 

Early  Canada.  An  eight-rowed,  yellow  flint  variety 
with  small  cob  and  deep  grain.  This  is  one  of  the 
earliest  and  best  and  seldom  fails  to  produce  a crop. 
The  Early  Canada  seed  we  have  to  offer  was  grown 
in  this  State. 


HASKELL’S  PRIZETAKER  CORN.  This  com  has  fully  maintained  its  past  record  as  being  the  very  best 
II  * *1  flint  com  grown.  This  corn  showed  a test  of  12.2  per  cent,  protein,  5.51 

fat  and  78.56  carbohydrates,  which  makes  it  the  highest  test  corn  from  a good  food  value  of  any  of  the 
known  flints  or  dents.  On  a recent  test  of  this  com,  70  pounds  of  ears  made  63  pounds  of  shelled  com.  This 
makes  an  exceptionally  fine  corn  for  an  ensilage  corn  as  it  grows  when  planted  for  ensilage  vei'y  ranl^,  be- 
ing 10  or  12  feet  tall,  and  the  stalks  are  very  fine  grain,  making  a much  more  profitable  corn  for  ensilage  than 
any  of  the  dent  varieties.  We  have  this  com  both  on  the  cob  and  shelled.

CHERVIL 

One  ounce  ^vill  sow  about  300  feet  of  drill. 

Cultivated  like  parsley.  Sow  thickly  in  May,  in 
drills  half  an  inch  deep,  one  foot  apart.  Use  while 
the  leaves  are  young  and  tender. 

Curled  Chervil.  The  young  leaves  are  used  for  gar- 
nishing, and  flavoring  soups. 

Pkt.,  .10;  oz.,  .20;  U lb.,  .45 

CRKSS  OR  FEFPERGRASS 

German, — Areffe.  French, — Cresson 

Spanish, — Masuerzo. 

One  ounce  will  sow  16  square  feet,  or  150  feet  of 
driU. 

A popular  salad,  which  should  be  sown  early  in  the 
spring — ^very  thickly  in  shallow  drills — and  at  short 
intervals,  for  success,  as  it  soon  runs  to  seed. 

Extra  Cui’led.  A small  plant,  having  a fine  pungent 
flavor,  and  used  as  a salad;  may  be  cut  two  or  three 
times.  Pkt.,  .10;  oz.,  .15;  M lb.,  .35 

True  Water  Cress.  Grows  along  the  banks  of  ponds 
and  streams,  and  is  easily  introduced,  wholly  unlike 
Extra  Curled;  leaves  are  quite  large  and  thick;  a fine 
salad,  sold  in  immense  quantities  in  the  large  markets 
in  spring.  Pkt.,  .10;  oz.,  .60;  ^4  lb.,  $1.25 

CUCUMBER 

German, — Gurfe.  French, — Concombre 

Spanish, — Pepino. 

One  ounce  'ivill  plant  50  hills;  2 pounds  will  plant 
an  acre. 

Culture. — For  earliest  use,  sow  the  seed  in  the  hot- 
bed or  greenhouse  in  February  or  March,  in  warm 
loam,  where  the  temperature  is  about  90  degrees. 
Cover  half  an  inch  deep,  and  when  the  plants  are  of 
fair  size  transplant  into  hills  (made  in  the  green- 
house) four  plants  in  a hill,  so  that  when  the  weather 
permits  the  whole  hill  can  be  moved  to  the  open 


ground  by  means  of  tins  made  for  that  purpose. 
Plant  for  general  use  in  the  open  ground  about  June 
1,  in  hills  6 feet  each  way,  and  thin  to  three  plants  in 
a hill.  Fine  old  manure  (about  six  cords  per  acre) 
is  sufficient;  or,  better  still,  plant  on  land  from  which 
a crop  has  been  taken,  and  which  was  heavily  manured 
for  that  crop. 

Davis  Perfect.  As  now  selected,  this  popular  new 
variety  is  well  worthy  of  praise.  The  long,  even  fruits 
are  of  fine  form,  with  an  intensely  dark  rich  green 
skin.  With  very  few  seeds  the  solid  white  flesh  is  of 
superb  quality  for  slicing.  So  handsome  and  regular 
are  the  fruits  that  they  bring  an  extra  price  on  mar- 
ket— often  being  taken  for  “hot-house  grown.”  The 
vines  are  of  strong  growth  and  quite  prolific. 

Pkt.,  .05;  oz.,  .15;  U lb.,  .50 
Extra  Early  Russian.  Earliest  variety  known;

fine  for  pickling  and  slicing. 

Pkt.,  .05;  oz.,  .15;  M lb.,  .50 
Early  Cluster.  Fruit  borne  in  pairs;  light  green;  a 
great  bearer.  Pkt.,  .05;  oz.,  .15;  ^4  lb.,  .50 

Early  Frame  or  Short  Green.  An  excellent  sort, 
both  for  table  use  and  for  pickling.  Plants  very  vigor- 
ous and  productive.  Fruit  straight,  a little  smaller  at 
the  end,  bright  green,  lighter  at  the  blossom  end. 
Comes  into  use  a little  later  than  the  Early  Cluster 
and  keeps  green  a long  time.  Our  stock  is  very  su- 
perior. . Pkt.,  .05;  oz.,  .15;  lb.,  .50 

Boston  Pickling.  Fruit  short,  smooth  and  pointed

ing a climbing  sort,  can  be  grown  on  trellises,  etc., 
saving  much  valuable  space  in  small  gardens.  It  is 
very  prolific,  from  forty  to  fifty  cucumbers  having 
been  counted  on  single  plants.  Fruit  cylindrical, 
about  ten  inches  long,  thick  and  of  fine  fiavor.

DANDELION 

German,^ — Lowenzahn.  French, — Pissenlit. 

Spanish, — Amargon. 

One  ounce  'ivill  sow  100  feet  of  drill. 

The  Dandelion  resembles  endive,  and  affords  one 
of  the  earliest  as  well  as  one  of  the  most  healthful 
spring  greens.  Sow  as  early  as  the  weather  will  per- 
mit, in  good,  well-enriched  soil,  in  rows  12  inches 
apart,  covering  seed  % of  an  inch  deep,  and  firming 
the  soil  well  over  them.  Thin  to  two  or  three  inches 
apart  in  the  rows;  by  so  doing  the  roots  will  be  larger 
and  a great  amount  of  time  will  be  saved  the  next 
spring  in  trimming  or  gathering  the  crop.  One  pound 
per  acre  is  suflBcient. 

Improved  Thick-Deaved.  Cultivate  for  spring 
greens;  an  immense  improvement  on  the  common 
dandelion,  both  in  size  and  thickness  of  its  leaves  and 
fine  flavor,  being  far  less  bitter.

EGGPLANT 

German, — Gierpanze.  French, — ^Aubergine. 

Spanish, — Berengena. 

The  Eggplant  will  thrive  well  in  any  good  garden 
soil,  but  will  repay  good  treatment.  The  seeds  should 
be  sown  in  hotbed  or  warm  greenhouse  in  March  or 
April,  and  when  about  an  inch  high  potted  in  two-inch 
pots.  Plant  about  June  1,  two  and  one-half  feet  apart.

Sow  from  the  middle  of  April  to  the  beginning  of 
May  in  prepared  beds;  transplant  in  June,  and  treat 
in  the  same  manner  as  for  cabbage.  Of  all  the  cab- 
bage tribe  this  is  the  most  tender  and  delicate.  The 
varieties  are  all  extremely  hardy,  and  are  best  when 
touched  by  frost.

Spanish, — Col  de  nabo. 

One  ounce  will  sow  200  feet  of  drill. 

This  vegetable,  the  popularity  of  which  is  rapidly 
increasing,  combines  the  virtues  of  the  turnip  and 
cabbage,  but  excels  both  in  nutritive,  hardy  and  pro- 
ductive qualities.  The  seed  may  be  sown  in  June  in 
rows  18  inches  apart,  and  the  plants  thinned  out  to 
eight  or  ten  inches  in  the  rows.

Spanish, — Puerro. 

One  ounce  >vill  plant  200  feet  of  didll. 

The  leek  is  very  hardy  and  easily  cultivated;  it  suc- 
ceeds best  in  a light  but  well-enriched  soil.  Sow  as 
early  in  the  spring  as  practical  in  drills  one  inch  deep 
and  one  foot  apart.  When  six  or  eight  inches  high 
they  may  be  transplanted  in  rows  ten  inches  apart

LETTUCE 


German, — Lattich.  French, — Laitue. 

Spanish, — Lechnga. 

One  ounce  will  sow  120  feet  of  drill. 

Requires  a rich,  moist  soil,  and  to  be  crisp  and  ten- 
der needs  to  be  grown  in  cool  weather.  For  winter 
use,  sow  in  hotbeds  every  two  weeks,  at  the  rate  of 
one  ounce  of  seed  to  four  sashes  (a  sash  is  three  feet 
long  by  six  feet  wide) ; cover  very  lightly,  and  trans- 
plant, first  to  three  inches  apart  each  way,  afterward 
to  eight  inches.  For  garden  or  field,  sow  in  rows,  and 
cover  one-fourth  of  an  inch  deep  and  thin  out  to  12 
inches  apart  in  the  rows.  For  New  England  the  White 
Seeded  Tennisball  for  cultivation  under  glass,  and  the 
Black  Seeded  Tennisball  for  outdoor  use  are  the 
standard  varieties.

MELON,  MUSE 

German, — Melone.  French, — Melon 

Spanish, — Melon. 

One  ounce  will  plant  about  50  hills  (2  to  3 pounds 
in  hills)  per  acre. 

Melons  thrive  best  in  a light,  rich  soil.  Plant  early 
in  May,  when  the  ground  has  become  warm  and  dry, 
in  hills  six  feet  apart  each  way  for  Muskmelons;  eight 
feet  for  Watermelons.  Previous  to  sowing  the  seed 
mix  a few  shovelfuls  of  well-rotted  manure  in  each 
hill,  and  plant  in  each  twelve  to  fifteen  seeds;  after  all 
danger  of  bugs  is  over,  thin  out  to  three  plants  per 
hill.  When  about  one  foot  long,  pinch  off  the  tips  to 
make  them  branch,  as  it  strengthens  the  growth  of 
the  vines  and  makes  the  fruit  mature  earlier.  Feed 
liquid  manure  occasionally.  A few  hills  for  early  use 
may  be  had  by  sowing  on  pieces  of  sod  in  a hotbed, 
and  when  warm  enough  transplant  to  open  ground. 


Musk  Melon. 


Emerald  Gem  Melon.  The  Emerald  Gem  is  entirely 
unlike  any  other  musk  melon  yet  introduced.  The 
melons  are  about  the  size  of  the  Netted  Gem,  but  un- 
like that  variety,  the  skin,  while  ribbed,  is  perfectly 
smooth,  and  of  a very  deep  emerald  green  color.  The 
flesh  which  is  thicker  than  any  other  native  melon  of 
the  same  size,  is  of  a suffused  salmon  color,  and  ripens 
thoroughly  to  the  thin  green  rind,  which  is  distinctly 
defined.  The  flesh  is  peculiarly  crystalline  in  appear- 
ance, and  so  very  juicy,  sweet  and  rich  that  it  almost 
drops  to  pieces.  It  matures  very  early  and  is  quite 
productive.  Pkt.,  .05;  oz.,  .15;  % lb.,  .50 

Rocky  Ford.  This  new  Muskmelon  is  similar  to  the 
oval  strain  of  Netted  Gem.  The  strain  here  offered 
originated  with  the  melon  growers  in  the  vicinity  of 
Rocky  Ford,  Col.,  who  have  shipped  this  melon  from 
that  distant  Western  point  to  Eastern  markets.  The 
melons  grown  by  them  are  so  fine  in  quality  as  to  out- 
sell all  others,  and  the  demand  for  such  melons  has 
been  far  beyond  the  supply. 

Pkt.,  .05;  oz.,  .15;  H lb.,  .50 
Long  Yellow  Musk.  A long,  large  melon  of  peculiar 
musky  flavor;  a rich,  yellow  color,  both  inside  and  out. 

Pkt.,  .05;  oz.,  .15;  U lb.,  .50 


Early  Hackensack.  An  improvement  over  the  old 
Hackensack,  producing  melons  of  as  good  quality  and 
ten  days  earlier.  Large  fruit.  With  thick,  green  flesh 
of  the  finest  flavor.  Pkt.,  .05;  oz.,  .15;  % lb.,  .50 


MELON,  WATER 

German, — Waffermelone.  Spanish, — Zandia. 

French, — Melon  d’Eau. 

One  ounce  will  plant  50  hills. 

Prices  on  all  varieties  of  Watermelons  as  follows: 
.05  per  pkt.;  .10  per  oz.;  % lb.,  .35. 

Citron  for  Preserves.  The  old  and  well-known  Pre- 
serving Citron;  seeds  red. 

New  Florida  Favorite.  An  improvement  on  the  old 
Florida  Favorite,  growing  to  double  the  size  and  more 
prolific.  Its  perfect  shape,  bright  red  crisp  flesh,  and 
delicious  flavor,  make  it  one  of  the  best  melons  grown. 

Phinney’s  Early.  This  is  another  very  early  melon, 
earlier  than  the  preceding;  it  is  hardy  and  a sure  crop- 
per and  extensively  cultivated  in  the  North. 

Peerless  or  Ice  Cream.  Very  early;  flesh  firm  and 
sugary. 

Cuban  Queen.  Very  productive;  flesh  bright  red, 
very  solid,  crispy  and  sugary. 

MUSTARD 

German, — Senf.  French, — Moutarde. 

Spanish, — Mostaza. 

One  oimce  will  sow  75  feet  of  drill. 

As  an  ingredient,  the  green  Mustard  imparts  a de- 
lightfully pungent  flavor  to  the  various  forms  of  pre- 
pared salads.  For  early  crops  the  seed  may  be  sown 
in  a hotbed  in  March,  and  for  general  crop  at  frequent 
intervals  through  the  spring,  in  drills  from  eight  to 
twelve  inches  apart. 

White  London.  Considered  the  best  for  salads  and 
spinach;  leaves  light  green.  It  is  best  when  about 
four  inches  high.  Pkt.,  .05;  oz.,  .10;  M lb.,  .15

ONION 

Select  the  cleanest,  richest  land  on  the  farm  for  the 
Onion  crop.  If  Onions  were  grown  on  the  land  the  pre- 
vious year,  so  much  the  better,  but  any  good  corn  or 
potato  land  will  do.  Broadcast  fifteen  to  twenty  cords 
of  fine,  well-rotted  manure  to  the  acre  and  plow  not 
deeper  than  six  inches;  harrow  thoroughly,  cross 
plow,  and  harrow  again,  after  which  hand  rake  with 
wood  rake  and  remove  stones  and  rubbish.  Sow  four 


21 


to  five  pounds  of  seed  per  acre  in  drills  twelve  to  four- 
teen inches  apart  and  about  one-half  inch  deep.  See 
that  the  Seed  Drill  is  equipped  with  a good  roller,  that 
will  press  the  earth  firmly  upon  the  seed.  Sow  as 
early  in  the  spring  as  the  ground  can  be  properly 
worked.  There  is  seldom  necessity  for  thinning 
Onions  if  the  land  has  been  properly  manured  and 
seeded.  After  the  Onions  are  three  to  four  inches 
high,  an  application  of  about  five  hundred  pounds  to 
the  acre  of  fertilizer,  rich  in  available  nitrogen,  strewn 
between  the  rows,  will  be  very  beneficial.  Keep  the 
Onions  growing  by  never  allowing  the  weeds  to  get 
ahead  and  the  acre  should  produce  in  a good  average 
season,  five  hundred  to  seven  hundred  bushels.  When 
the  tops  are  down,  the  Onions  may  be  pulled  and  left 
on  the  ground,  and  should  be  frequently  turned  with 
a wooden  rake  until  tops  are  dried. 


Yellow  Globe  Danvers 

Yellow  Globe  Danvers.  Undoubtedly  the  best 
known  and  most  popular  of  all  onions;  the  earliest 
yellow  variety;  is  entirely  free  from  stiff  necks.

Southport  Red  Globe.  The  onions  from  Southport, 
Ct.,  generally  command  an  extra  price  in  New  York 
markets,  because  of  their  beautiful  shape  and  color, 
due  partly  to  the  variety  grown  and  partly  to  the 
favorable  soil  and  the  extra  care  taken  in  handling 
the  crop.  Pkt.,  .10;  oz.,  .30;  % lb.,  .75

Onion  sets  should  be  planted  as  ' 

early 

in 

the 

spring 

as  convenient  to  obtain  early  green  onions,  but  they 
may  be  set  at  any  time  up  to  June  1.  Set  in  rows  a 
foot  apart  and  three  to  four  inches  between  them  in 
the  row.  Any  good  soil  will  suit  them.  When  grown 
in  quantities,  high  cultivation  is  given  in  order  to  for- 
ward the  crop  for  an  early  market.  They  are  ready 
for  use  as  soon  as  the  bulbs  begin  to  be  of  fair  size. 
Those  not  used  in  green  condition  will  ripen  early  in 
July  and  make  nice  onions.  Potato  and  Top  onions 
are  grown  from  bulbs  only. 


Moss  Curled 


PARSLEY 

German, — Peterfile.  French, — Persil. 

Spanish, — Perejil. 

One  ounce  for  150  feet  of  drill. 

Parsley  succeeds  best  in  rich,  mellow  soil.  As  the 
seed  germinates  very  slowly,  it  should  be  sown  early 
in  spring,  previously  soaking  the  seed  for  a few  hours 
in  tepid  water.  Sow  thickly  in  rows  a foot  apart  and 
half  an  inch  deep.

German, — Erbren.  PEAS  French, — Pois. 

Spanish, — Guizante. 

One  pound  for  50  feet  of  drill;  one  to  two  bushels 
in  drills  for  an  acre. 

Peas  come  earliest  to  maturity  in  light,  rich  soil.* 
For  general  crop,  a deep  loam  or  a soil  strongly  in- 
clined to  clay  is  best.  For  early  crops  decomposed 
leaves  or  leaf-mold  should  be  used;  or,  if  the  soil  is 
very  poor,  strong  manure  may  be  used.  For  general 
crops  a good  dressing  should  be  applied,  and  for  the 
dwarf-growing  kinds  the  soil  can  hardly  be  too  rich. 


Sutton’s  Excelsior 

When  grown  as  a market  crop,  peas  are  never  staked; 
for  private  use  they  are  generally  sown  in  double 
rows,  and  the  tall  varieties  staked  up  by  brush.  For 
an  early  crop  sow  as  soon  as  the  ground  can  be 
worked,  and  make  repeated  sowings  every  two  weeks 
for  succession.  After  the  first  of  June  sowing  should 
be  discontinued  until  the  middle  of  August,  when  a 
good  crop  may  sometimes  be  secured  by  sowing  an 
extra-early  sort  for  fall  use. 

If  sent  by  mail  add  .06  per  lb.;  and  for  each  addi- 
tional lb.  to  same  address  add  .01. 

All  marked  thus  (*)  indicate  wrinkled  varieties.

Spanish, — Cabbage. 

One  oimce  >vill  plant  20  hills. 

Pumpkins  are  grown  chiefiy  as  food  for  stock.  The 
usual  method  of  planting  is  to  scatter  a few  seeds  at 
intervals  in  the  hills  when  planting  Indian  corn;  in 
this  way  good  crops  of  pumpkins  are  secured  with 
slight  labor  and  expense,  and  make  a valuable  addi- 
tion to  the  season’s  crops.

admit,  fifteen  inches  apart,  covering  half  an  inch  deep. 
When  well  up  thin  out  to  five  or  six  inches  apart  in 
the  rows.  Unlike  carrots,  they  are  improved  by  frost, 
and  it  is  usual  to  take  up  in  the  fall  a certain  quan- 
tity for  winter  use,  leaving  the  rest  in  the  ground  till 
spring,  to  be  dug  as  required.

One  ounce  will  sow  100  feet  of  drill. 

Culture.  The  soil  for  Radishes  should  be  very  rich, 
light  and  mellow,  well  broken  by  digging  as  their  ten- 
der and  mild  qualities  depend  very  much  upon  their 
rapid  growth.  For  very  early  use  sow  in  hotbeds  in 
February  and  March  and  in  the  open  air  as  soon  as 
the  ground  can  be  worked,  at  intervals  of  ten  or  twelve 
days  for  a succession  as  long  as  they  may  be  wanted.

One  ounce  will  sow  50  feet  of  drill. 

Culture.  Sow  the  seed  in  light,  deep  soil,  early  in 
the  spring,  in  drills  twelve  inches  apart  and  one  inch 
deep,  thinning  out  the  young  plants  to  four  or  five 
inches.  The  roots  will  be  ready  for  use  in  October, 
when  a supply  should  be  taken  up  and  stored,  like  car- 
rots. Those  remaining  till  spring  should  be  dug  up 
before  commencing  their  growth.

Spanish, — Espinaca. 

One  ounce  for  100  feet  of  dilll;  10  to  12  pounds  in 
drills  for  an  acre. 

This  is  a very  important  crop  in  our  market  gar- 
dens, and  is  one  of  the  most  easily  managed  of  all  veg- 
etables, requiring  but  little  culture,  and  may  be  had 
fit  for  use  the  entire  season.  The  main  crop  is  sown 
in  September.  It  is  sometimes  covered  up  in  exposed 
places  with  straw  or  salt  hay  during  winter,  which 
prevents  it  from  being  cut  with  frost;  but  in  sheltered 
fields  there  is  no  necessity  for  covering.  For  summer 
use  it  may  be  sown  at  intervals  of  two  or  three  weeks 
from  April  to  August.  Spinach  is  best  developed  and 
most  tender  when  grown  in  rich  soil. 

Prices  on  all  varieties  as  follows:

TOMATO 

German, — Liebsapfel.  Spanish, — ^Tomate. 

In  this  latitude  to  produce  extra  early  tomatoes  the 
seeds  should  be  planted  in  the  hotbed  about  the  mid- 
dle of  February,  in  drills  five  inches  apart,  and  not 
over  one-half  inch  deep.  When  the  plants  are  two 
inches  high  they  should  be  transplanted  three  to  four 
inches  apart.  The  final  transplanting  to  the  open 
ground  may  be  made  the  last  of  May,  when  the  plants 
should  be  fine,  large  and  stocky,  and  if  suflacient  soil 
is  taken  up  with  each  plant,  they  will  keep  right  on 
growing  with  no  setback.  ♦ 


For  ordinary  plants,  sow  the  seed  early  in  March, 
and  transplant,  once  in  the  hotbed  and  from  hotbed 
into  cold  frames  about  four  inches  apart.  The  last  of 
May  they  will  be  ready  for  the  open  ground  where  the 
Dwarf  varieties  should  be  planted  3%  feet  apart  and 
the  spreading  varieties  4 to  feet  apart.

but  is  more  desirable  for  home  use  as  the  fruits  are 
thicker  through  and  more  solid;  borne  in  large  clus- 
ters. Color  bright  scarlet  and  quality  good. 

Pkt.,  .05;  oz.,  .35;  ^ lb.,  $1.00

June  Pinli.  An  early  variety,  similar  in  habit  to  the 
famous  Earliana,  differing  only  in  its  color,  which  is 
pink  instead  of  red.  Early,  blight  resisting,  long  and 
heavy  yielding.  An  excellent  shipper  on  account  of  its 
reasonably  tough  skin.

SQUASH 

German, — Kurbiss.  French, — Courge. 

Spanish, — Calabaza. 

One  ounce  Early  will  plant  50  hills;  one  ounce  Mar- 
row, 25  hills. 

Culture.  The  plants  are  very  tender  and  sensitve 
to  cold,  and  planting  must  be  delayed  until  settled 
warm  weather.  The  general  principles  of  culture  are 
the  same  as  those  given  for  cucumbers  and  melons, 
but  the  plants  are  less  particular  as  to  soil.  The  sum- 
mer varieties  should  be  planted  four  feet  apart  each 
way,  and  the  winter  sorts  eight  feet.  Three  plants  are 
sufficient  for  a hill.  Care  should  be  taken  not  to 
break  the  stems  from  the  squashes  intended  for  win- 
ter use,  as  the  slightest  injury  will  increase  the  liabil- 
ity to  decay. 

Improved  Hubbard.  The  well-known  and  standard 
late  variety;  our  strain  is  excellent. 

Pkt.,  .05;  oz.,  .15;  M lb.,  .50;  lb.,  $1.50

of  the  Northern  and  Middle  States.  Pkt.,  .05;  oz.,  .30 

TURNIP 

German, — Steckrube.  French, — Navet. 

Spanish, — Nabo  Comun. 

Turnips  may  be  sown  at  all  seasons  from  April  to 
August  in  our  climate,  although  those  will  be  the  best 
which  are  sown  very  early  in  spring  for  summer  crops, 
and  early  in  August  for  a fall  and  winter  crop.  A 
light  soil,  well  manured  the  previous  year,  is  the  best. 
A few  hundred  pounds  per  acre  of  quick-acting  fertil- 
izer will  have  a tendency  to  make  the  roots  smooth, 
and  to  make  the  rapid  growth  so  essential  in  produc- 
ing sweet  and  palatable  turnips.

Extra  Eariy  Purple  Top  Milan  (Flat).  The  earliest 
turnip  in  cultivation  and  a splendid  variety;  favorite 
with  gardeners  who  want  first  turnips  in  market. 
Bulb  white,  fiat,  of  medium  size,  with  a bright  purple 
top;  one  of  the  sweetest  and  finest  fiavored  of  sum- 
mer sorts.  Pkt.,  .10;  oz.,  .20;  % lb.,  .60;  lb.,  $2.00 
Extra  Early  White  Milan.  This  is  one  of  our  most 
popular  turnips  for  spring  sowing.  It  is  a splendid 
extra  early  turnip  in  which  the  extreme  earliness, 
small  top  and  tap-root  of  the  Purple  Top  Milan  is 
united  with  clear  white  skin  and  flesh. 

Pkt.,  .10;  oz.,  .20;  M lb.,  .60;  lb.,  $2.00 
Purple  Top  Strap  Leaf.  Rapid  grower  and  mild 
flavor.  The  most  popular  variety  for  early  use,  either

Ruta  Baga  or  Swedish  Turnip 


Ruta  Bagas,  or  Swedes,  should  be  planted  from  the 
last  of  June  to  about  July  10,  as  they  require  more 
time  in  which  to  mature  than  the  Early  or  Strap  Leaf 
varieties.  J^ewly-turned  soil  will  produce  the  sweet- 
est and  smoothest  turnips. 

Long  Island  Purple.  Undoubtedly  the  finest  variety 
of  purple-top  Ruta  Baga.  Leaves  few  and  small; 
bulbs  fine  shaped  with  very  short,  small  necks;  purple

Grasses  and  Grains 

NOTE — Owing  to  the  frequent  changes  in  price  of  Grains  and  Grasses  we  have  refrained  from  inserting 
prices  of  them  in  this  catalogue.  The  lowest  market  price  will  be  quoted  on  application. 

SPECIAL  ATTENTION 

While  we  carry  several  grades  of  the  different  varieties  of  seeds,  we  recommend  our  Purity  Brand  as  the 
very  best  the  market  affords.  These  seeds  are  strictly  Northern  grown,  and  are  selected  by  us  because  they 
possess  the  two  essential  qualities  of  purity  and  vitality.  It  is  well  known  that  there  have  been  large  quanti- 
ties of  Grass  and  Clover  Seed  sold  as  pure,  which  official  analysis  has  shown  to  contain  large  percentages  of 
adulteration.  This  not  only  defrauds  the  planter  by  selling  him  a worse  than  useless  article,  but  inflicts  in- 
jury also  by  filling  his  land  with  noxious  weeds.  We  list  Grass  and  Clover  Seed  according  to  their  quality, 
grading  down  from  our  Purity  Brand,  which  is  always  the  best.

♦To  50  gallons  of  water. 

The  above  recommendations  are  condensed  and  are  somewhat  sub- 
ject to  change  depending  upon  conditions  in  various  sections  of  the  country. 

Where  an  effective  combination  Insecticide  and  Fxmgicide  is  desired, 
"Bordo-Arsenate”  used  at  same  strength  as  inc^cated  for  Dry  Powdered 
Ar^nate  of  Lead  will  give  splendid  results.  Dry  Powdered  Bordeaux 
Mixture  can  be  used  as  a dry  dust  just  as  it  comes  from  the  package  or 
in  combination  with  equal  quantities  of  Dry  Powdered  Arsenate  of  Lead 
or  Arsenate  of  Calcium.  When  using  Dry  Powdered  Bordeaux  Mixture 
as  a wet  spray  use  from  three  to  five  pounds  to  fifty  gallons  of  water  for 
the  control  of  most  fungus  diseases. 

Dry  Powdered  Insecticides  can  be  used  for  dry  dusting  just  as  they 
come  from  the  package. 


For  the  convenience  of  the  home  gardener,  the  above  table  will  be  of 
interest. 

Dry  Powdered  Arsenate  of  Lead  where  used  at  strength  of  one  pound 
to  fifty  gallons  of  water,  should  be  used  at  rate  of  two  to  three  teasponfuls

Dry  Powdered  Arsenate  of  Lead 

Dry  Powdered  Arsenate  of  Liead  has  been  found 
to  be  one  of  the  most  efficient  universal  insecticides 
known  to  the  industry  today.  Dry  powdered  Arsenate 


of  Lead  is  the  result  of  the  most  modern  chemical 
processes  and  manufacture,  and  is  probably  the  finest 
product  of  its  kind  manufactured  today. 

It  is  a very  finely  divided,  fiuffy  powder,  which  can 
be  used  either  for  dry  dusting  or  for  wet  spraying. 
Due  to  its  light,  fiuffy  consistency,  it  insures  the 
grower  and  farmer  maximum,  uniform  results  in  his 
spraying  mixture.  It  covers  the  leaf  and  fruit 
thoroughly  and  uniformly,  and  insures  maximum  re- 
sults. Its  wonderful  suspension  qualities  and  the 
ease  with  which  it  is  gotten  into  suspension  make  it 
particularly  attractive  to  the  commercial  fruit  grower 
and  farmer,  as  well  as  to  the  average  consumer. 

Dry  Powdered  Arsenate  of  Lead  is  put  up  in  sift- 
proof  cartons  and  heavy  drums  in  convenient  sizes  for 
the  large  commercial  grower,  as  well  as  for  the  small 
home  gardener  and  grower.  It  is  put  up  in  the  fol- 
lowing sizes:  1 lb.,  5 lb.  and  10  lb.  double  compart- 
ment cardboard  cartons,  and  25,  50,  100  and  200  lb. 
impervious  veneer  drums.

We  have  adopted  the  best  packages  we  could  pos- 
sibly secure,  and  as  a result  our  customers  receive 
Dry  Powdered  Arsenate  of  Lead  in  the  neatest,  most 
compact  and  most  serviceable  package. 

Dry  Powdered  Arsenate  of  Calcium 

The  use  of  Dry  Powdered  Arsenate  of  Calcium  as  a 
stomach  poison  for  controlling  leaf-eating  insects  has 
become  more  general  each  year,  and  is  especially 
adapted  for  use  in  spraying  seed  fruits  and  vegetables. 

To  the  average  grower.  Arsenate  of  Calcium  is  not 
as  well  known  as  Arsenate  of  Lead  and  Paris  Green. 
This  is  due  no  doubt  to  the  fact  that  in  the  past  it 
has  not  been  pushed  by  either  Government  Experiment 
Stations  or  Insecticide  manufacturers.  Numerous 
tests  conducted  the  past  year  have  proven  beyond  a 
doubt  the  efficiency  of  Arsenate  of  Calcium  and  it  is 
now  highly  recommended  by  authorities  on  Insecti- 
cides. 

Write  for  our  special  literature  on  Powdered  Arse- 
nate of  Calcium. 

Dry  Lime  Sulphur 

Dry  Lime  Sulphur  is  not  an  entirely  new  product — 
it  is  just  an  improved,  standard  spray  material.  It  is 
made  to  supply  the  demand  of  the  growers  for  a con- 
venient, economical  and  efficient  tree  spray  for  the 
control  of  scale  insects  and  certain  fungus  diseases. 
It  is  simply  a more  practical  form  of  Liquid  Lime 
Sulphur  which,  for  years,  has  been  known  by  growers 
as  an  effective  spray  material. 

Dry  Lime  Sulphur  is  not  a substitute  for  Liquid 
Lime  Sulphur — it  is  the  actual  Lime  Sulphur  possess- 
ing all  of  the  good  qualities  and  none  of  the  disad- 
vantages of  the  old  style  Liquid  Lime  Sulphur. 

Dry  Lime  Sulphur  will  control  San  Jose  Scale  and 
other  scale  insects.  It  is  effective  against  Apple  Scab, 
Peach  Leaf  Curl,  Leaf  Blister  Mite,  Brown  Rot  of 
peach  or  plum  and  other  fungus  diseases  that  you  have 
controlled  in  the  past  with  Liquid  Lime  Sulphur. 


Dry  Powdered  Bordeaux  Mixture 

Bordeaux  Mixture  in  paste  form  has  for  many  years 
been  a standard  fungicide  for  use  in  the  control  of 
mildew,  blight  and  other  fungus  diseases.  Best  re- 
sults from  the  use  of  Bordeaux  Mixture  depend  upon 
the  exact  chemical  make-up  of  the  material.  The 
home-made  Bordeaux  Mixture  as  compounded  by  the 
average  farmer  and  grower  has  been  a splendid 
product,  but  has  been  subject  to  the  uncertainties 
which  are  necessarily  attendant  upon  incomplete 
equipment,  etc. 

Dry  Powdered  Bordeaux  Mixture  can  be  used 
wherever  paste  Bordeaux  Mixture  has  been  used  here- 
tofore. It  is  splendidly  adapted  for  both  fruit  tree 
and  truck  crop  work,  and  can  be  used  in  combination 
with  any  insecticides,  either  as  a dry  or  as  a liquid 
spray. 


Dry  Powdered  Bordo-Arsenate 

The  Two-in-One  Spray 

This  product  combines  the  killing  properties  of 
Arsenate  of  Lead  and  the  fungus  preventative  quali- 
ties of  Bordeaux  Mixture. 

Dry  Powdered  Bordo-Arsenate  being  a scientific 
combination  of  Arsenate  of  Lead  and  Bordeaux  Mix- 
ture will  control  both  external  leaf-eating  insects  and 
fungus  diseases  at  the  same  time.  It  is  prepared  in 
dry  powdered  form  which  is  a decided  advantage  over 
the  old  form  of  paste  products.

PRODUCTION 

Seeds  of  all  legumes — beaus,  peas,  clover,  alfalfa, 
and  related  crops — will  yield  far  better  if  inoculated 
with  Farmogerm,  and  in  addition  leave  in  the  soil  a 
heavy  deposit  of  nitrogen  which  benefits  all  succeed- 
ing crops.  Gardeners  and  farmers  who  have  used 
Fannogemi  would  not  be  without  it. 

Farmogenn  Stays  Good  Indefinitely 

Farmogei-m  keeps  for  years.  Because  of  the  method 
of  sealing  the  bottle — a patented  stopper  which  ad- 
mits filtered  air  and  keeps  out  all  impurities — Fai-m- 
ogenn  is  just  as  good  in  five  years  as  when  first  bot- 
tled. Other  inoculants  get  weaker  each  day — Farmo- 
germ  always  has  its  full  strength.  Just  add  water  and 
shake  the  bottle  and  sprinkle  over  the  seeds  as  di- 
rected. Your  crop  will  benefit  beyond  your  expec- 
tations. Farmogerm  is  Economical 

No  other  inoculant  on  the  market  is  so  strong  and 
virile;  no  other  inoculant  will  thoroughly  treat  as 
much  seed.  The  one-acre  size  bottle  of  Farmogerm  is 
sufficient  for  15  pounds  of  clover,  20  pounds  of  alfal- 
fa, 100  pounds  of  Canada  Field  Peas,  60  pounds  of 
Vetch,  etc.  A different  bacteria  is  required  for  each 
crop.  AMien  ordering,  be  sm’e  to  state  what  crops  you 
wish  to  inoculate. 

FARMOGERM  PRICES  REDUCED 

New  scientific  methods  of  manufacture  have  given 
lower  prices.  You  cannot  now  afford  to  do  without 
Farmogerm. 

A special  composite  culture  is  prepared  for  peas, 
beans  and  sweet  peas — ^-acre  size  only.  You’ll  get 
more  peas  and  beans,  and  larger  sweet  peas  by  using 
this.  Ask  for  No.  5,  price  50  cents. 

Faimogenn  prices  are:  1-acre  size,  $1;  3-acre  size, 
$2.50;  12-acre  size,  $9.  Full  directions  accompany

An  All-the-Y'ear  Fertilizer  for  Garden  and 
House  Plants 

Growers  of  fine  fiowers,  shrubs  and  vegetables  for 
the  best  markets  and  for  exhibition,  fertilize  and 
stimulate  them  frequently,  a little  at  a time.  An  ex- 
cellent fertilizer  for  this  purpose  is  Stim-U-planT,  an 
odorless,  highly  concentrated  plant-food,  in  tablet 
form,  with  guaranteed  chemical  analysis  of  11  per 
cent  nitrogen,  12  per  cent  phosphoric  acid,  15  per  cent 
potash.  The  proportions  are  accurate,  there  is  no  un- 
necessary filler,  and  in  this  form  you  are  able  to  apply 
plant-food  exactly  when  and  where  and  as  needed. 


Make  Your  Garden  a Wonder  Garden 
These  tablets  increase  production,  heighten  color 
and  improve  quality.  Many  professional  and  ama- 
teur growers  use  them  extensively  all  the  year  round 
— from  early  spring  until  late  fall  outdoors,  during 
the  winter  for  pot  plants,  hot-house  benches,  etc. 
They  are  equally  good  for  evergreens  and  other  trees 
as  for  a small  fern,  petunia  or  other  potted  plant. 

Stim-U-planT  Tablets 

can  be  used  in  tablet  form,  or  dissolved  in  water  ai

INCUBATORS,  BROODERS  AND  HOVERS 


Cyphers  Company  Incubators 


Standard  Cyphers  Incubators 

These  are  machines  that  for  twenty  years  and  more  have  been  recog- 
nized as  the  “Standard  hatchers  of  the  world.”  They  are  used  by  more 
Government  Experiment  Stations,  on  more  large,  practical  poultry  plants, 
on  more  successful  duck  and  egg  farms,  and  by  a larger  number  of  fore- 
most poultry  breeders  than  all  other  makes  combined.  They  are  built  to 
hatch  and  to  last.  With  ordinary  care  they  should  last  an  ordinary  life- 
time. Every  Standard  Cyphers  Incubator  is  guaranteed  by  the  manu- 
facturers to  do  first-class  work  in  the  hands  of  every  purchaser  who  will 
give  it  a fair  trial.  Are  built  in  four  popular  sizes.

Superior  Hot- Water  Incubator 

In  the  Superior  you  get  a hot-water  incubator  that  is  well  built,  well  in- 
sulated and  up  to  Cyphers  standards  in  all  details  of  design,  material  and  work- 
manship. It  is  equipped  with  Cyphers  Co.'s  regulated  patented  toggle-lever 
regulator;  it  has  a high  grade  water  heating  system;  it  can  be  operated  more 
easily  than  any  other  hot-water  machine;  and  it  will  outhatch  and  outlast  any 
hot-water  incubator  on  the  market  at  anywhere  near  the  price.  It  is  well 
made  and  handsomely  finished — nothing  cheap  about  it  in  appearance.  Built 
In  two  sizes  and  at  prices  as  follows: 

65  Egg  size,  weight  43  lbs $17.75 

130  Egg  size,  weight  68  lbs 24.75 

Cyphers  Adaptable  Hover 

The  C>T)hers  Adaptable  Hover  is  self-ventilating  and  self-regulating.  It  sup- 
plies a continuous  flow  of  fresh,  pure,  warmed  air  under  the  hover,  and  at  the 
same  time  maintains  a steady,  uniform  heat.  It  is  “adaptable”  to  use  in  Colony 
Coops,  in  portable  houses,  in  home-made  brooder  coops,  as  well  as  in  large  brood- 
ing houses.  It  is  constructed  entirely  of  non-combustible  material,  and  bears  the 
fire  underwriters’.  Inspected  Brooder  label.  Capacity,  seventy-five  newly  hatched 
chicks,  or  fifty  chicks  that  are  ten  days  to  six  weeks  old.  Weight  38  lbs. 

CYPHERS  COMPANY  BROODERS 


Standard  G5^hers  Brooder 

The  Standard  Cyphers  Brooder  is  not  only  fire-proof  and  insurable, 
but  the  most  durable,  convenient  and  most  efficient  indoor  and  outdoor 
brooder  thus  far  invented  and  placed  on  the  market.  It  is  equipped 
with  the  same  type  of  high-grade  thermostat  as  used  on  the  Standard 
Cyphers  Incubator — you  can  therefore  depend  upon  an  even,  steady 
temperature  in  the  hover,  and  a lively,  thrifty  growing  lot  of  chickens. 
The  popular  Style  B (shown  in  illustration  herewith)  contains  three 
apartments;  first,  roomy  space  under  the  hover;  second,  hover  chamber; 
third,  well-lighted  exercising  apartments.  It  has  often  been  said  by 
users  of  Cyphers  Brooders  that  “They  Mother  the  Chicks  Better  than  a 
Hen.” 

Style  B.  3-Apartment  Outdoor  Brooder,  shipping  weight  200  lbs.  $35.00 


Style  B.  Three- Apartment  Brooder 


CYPHERS  CENTER  LAMP  PORTABLE  HOVER 

The  greatest  loss  in  the  poultry  business  is  in  the  raising  of 
baby  chicks.  When  selecting  a hover,  therefore,  the  buyer  should 
make  sure  that  the  device  he  decides  upon  is  constructed  along  sci- 
entific lines  and  contains  the  qualities  necessary  to  success. 

The  Center  Lamp  Portable  Hover  can  be  used  successfully  in 
home-made  coops;  in  piano  or  organ  cases  made  to  serve  as  brooding 
places;  in  barns  and  woodsheds;  in  ash  houses;  in  garrets  or  other 
available  rooms  indoors;  in  outside  kitchens;  in  garages;  in  dry-goods 
boxes  large  enough  to  accommodate  it — anywhere  that  the  chicks 
have  protection  from  the  elements. 

Capacity  100  Chicks.  Wgt.  24  lbs.  Price  $13.50.

NEWTOWN  Colony  Brooder 

Coal-buming,  Self-regulating 
The  Newtown  Coal-burning  Colony  Brooder  needs 
no  introduction  to  poultrymen.  It  was  the  first  coal- 
burning, self-feeding,  self-regulating  Colony  Brooder 
put  upon  the  market — has  been  longer  in  use  than 
another  of  its  type — and  is  giving  efficient  service  in 
every  State  of  the  Union  and  nine  foreign  countries. 
It  represents  the  modern  up-to-date  brooder  in  the 


highest  form  of  development.  The  Newtown  way  is 
the  proven  road  to  better  profits.

International  Sanitary  Hover 

Advantages  possessed 
by  the  International 
Hover  and  not  to  be 
found  in  any  other 
brooding  device. 

1.  It  is  warmer  at 
the  curtain  than  near 
the  center.  This  causes 
the  chicks  to  distrib- 
ute themselves  just 
back  of  the  edge  of  the 
curtain  where  they 
have  a consistent  sup- 
ply of  fresh  air  and 
plenty  of  room. 

2.  It  is  entirely  cir- 
cular and  has  no  cor- 
ners for  the  chicks  to  crowd  into. 

3.  The  lamp  holder  can  be  lifted  out  through  the 
top  of  the  hover  by  a person  standing  up.  This  makes 
it  unnecessary  for  the  operator  to  kneel  in  the  dust 
and  mud  to  tend  his  lamp. 

It  gives  ample  heat  under  the  hover  without  so 
heating  the  surrounding  floor  space  as  to  cause  leg 
weakness  among  the  chicks. 

Price:  Sanitary  Hover,  28  in.  Dia.,  Capacity  100 
Chicks,  Weight  24  lbs.,  $13.50.

Globe  Chick  Mash  with  Dried  Buttermilk 

A first  feed  for  baby  chicks 

The  baby  chick  is  extremely 
delicate  and  the  utmost  care 
should  be  exercised  in  selecting 
feed  which  will  be  easily  di- 
gested and  at  the  same  time 
supply  the  proper  nourishment. 
Globe  Chick  Mash  with  Dried 
Buttermilk 

is  prepared  especially  for  the 
proper  starting  and  rapid  build- 
ing up  or  growth  of  young 
chicks.  After  they  begin  to 
eat,  it  should  be  fed  in  small 
hoppers  and  kept  before  them 
all  the  time. 

This  should  be  supplemented  with  Globe  Chick 
Feed.  When  this  is  done  the  chicken  will  “get  off  to 
a flying  start”  and  will  grow  quicker,  mature  earlier.

Sexton’s  Dry 


Open  Closed 

Kasy  to  fill.  No  waste.  Rat  proof.  Rust  proof. 

Pronounced  to  be  the  best  Hopper  offered.  Sim- 
ple in  construction,  easily  operated  and  absolutely 
“rat”  and  “mouse”  proof. 

The  lower  cover  is  so  arranged  that  it  is  held  up 
by  locking  the  top  cover  of  Hopper  over  same,  and  by 
raising  the  top  cover  the  lower  cover  will  fall  in  place. 

It  is  unnecessary  for  us  to  treat  on  the  advantages 
of  Dry  Feed,  as  it  is  now  being  used  extensively  by  all 
raisers  of  Poultry. 

This  Hopper  is  arranged  to  hang  on  the  wall  the 
desired  distance  from  the  floor  and  never  need  be  re- 
moved from  the  wall  to  be  refilled.  It  is  impossible 
to  waste  any  feed  as  the  pan  at  the  bottom  takes  any 
feed  that  may  be  picked  out  and  the  last  crumb  can  be 
used,  therefore  saving  any  waste.  The  body  being 
covered,  keeps  feed  dust-proof  and  clean  and  is  always 


dry.

Ideal  Sanitary  Poultry  Drinking  Fountain 

The  simplest,  handiest  and  most 
practical  fountain  made.  Keeps  wa- 
ter the  right  temperature  all  the 
year.  Has  no  lamps  to  trim  and 
valves  to  get  out  of  order.  Saves 
time,  labor,  and  worry  and  costs 
nothing  to  run.  In  offering  this 
fountain  we  feel  that  we  have  added 
a long  wanted  article  in  up-to-date 
caring  for  poultry.  The  open  pan  or 
drinking  fountain  gave  to  peultry  only  stale  or  filthy 
water  which  was  too  warm  in  summer  and  too  cold  in 
winter.  These  conditions  led  us  to  devise  a fountain 
in  which  water  could  be  kept  PURE  and  CLEAN  and 
of  desired  temperature  in  any  climate.

The  Kinerson  Combination  Butter  Prints 

The  Kinerson  Prints  are  too  well  known  to  require 
elaborate  advertising  or  testimonials.  There  are  va- 
rious devices  on  the  market  for  printing  butter,  but 
the  Kinerson  Print  has  no  real  competitor.  Its  first 
cost  is  a trifle  in  advance  of  the  cost  of  inferior  goods, 
but  no  more  so  than  is  necessary  to  insure  each  cus- 
tomer of  honorable  business  dealing,  first-class  work- 
manship, skilled  engraving  executed  to  order,  and  a 
thoroughly  practical,  simple  and  convenient  Print 
which  is  the  fruit  of  years  of  careful  study,  experiment 
and  improvement — a Print  that  will  save  many  times 
its  original  cost,  in  valuable  time,  and  will  outwear 
any  other  Print  on  the  market.  The  above  statements 
are  made  in  thorough  good  faith  and  the  Prints  them- 
selves will  demonstrate  their  truthfulness. 

These  Prints  will  be  carved  with  any  Initial,  Mono- 
gram or  design  wanted.  Price  including  Cutters  and 
Paddles,  postage  paid  anywhere  in  New  England

BLATOHFORD  CALF  MEAL 
The  Complete  Milk  Equal 

A 50-pound  bag  will  nourish  a calf  from  the  time  it 
is  4 or  5 days  old  until  it  can  eat  ordinary  feed.  An- 
other bag  or  two  combined  with  the  ordinary  feed  will 
start  it  well  on  toward  maturity. 


These  scales  are  made  with 
a loose  pointer  which,  by 
means  of  a thumbscrew  on 
the  center  of  the  pointer, 
may  be  set  anywhere  on  the 
dial,  thus  taking  the  tare  of 
the  milk  pail,  etc.  They  are 
made  with  pounds  divided  in 
ounces  or  decimally.

' ‘Dandy-Lion”  Weed  Killer 

Dandelion,  Pigweed,  Burdocks  and 
other  common  weeds  quickly  and 
easily  destroyed  without  cutting  or 
digging,  by  use  of  the  new  “Dandy- 
Lion”  Weed  Exterminator.  Cutting  or 
pulling  off  the  tops  only  retards  the 
growth,  the  weeds  soon  re-appear, 
more  vigorous  than  before.  One  oper- 
ation with  the  “Dandy-Lion”  kills  root 
and  all. 

How  It  Works 

All  working  parts  are  made  easily 
accessible.  The  base  with  all  work- 
ing parts  is  quickly  unscrewed  and 
opened  up  for  cleaning  or  adjustment. 
The  plunger  is  pushed  down  into  the 
crown  of  the  weed  and  the  hole  is  en- 
larged by  moving  the  handle  with  a circular  motion. 
Then  by  pressing  down  the  handle,  the  valve  opens, 
the  desired  amount  of  weed  killing  solution  is  depos- 
ited in  the  centre  of  the  root  to  be  killed  and  the  work 
is  done.  Price,  $1.00.

Victory 


The 

Cadet 

or 

Nipper 


This  is  a good  Lawn  Mower  at  a medium  low  price 
and  gives  the  purchaser  full  value  for  his  money.  It 
has  brass  bushings  and  the  same  ratchets  and  adjust- 
ments that  are  used  on  many  of  the  high  grade  Mow- 
ers, and  it  is  in  every  respect  what  is  needed  at  the 
present  time,  viz.,  a Mower  that  will  do  good  service 
and  at  a cost  but  little  higher  than  the  poor  trash 
that  is  put  out  so  freely. 

Prices:  14  in.,  $7.00;  16  in.,  $7.25;  18  in.,  $7.50. 


We  make  a specialty  of  GRASS  SEEDS,  and  while 
we  carry  several  grades  from  PURITY  BRAND 
down,  we  always  recommend  Ithe  best,  our  PU- 
RITYiBRAND. 


A splendid  High-Grade  Mov/er,  at  a little  lower 
price  than  the  “Victory.”  Ball  bearings  entirely  en- 
closed. Adjustments  very  simple.  Knives  very  hard 
and  of  the  best  steel. 

Prices:  14  in.,  $12.50;  16  in.,  $13.75;  18  in.,  $15.00.

Victor  Game  Traps 

A reliable  trap  is  as  important  to  the  trapper  as  a 
good  gun  is  to  the  hunter.  For  the  loss  of  one  pelt 
often  equals  the  cost  of  a whole  season’s  traps. 

In  the  minds  of  trappers  who  have  used  various 
brands  of  traps,  the  Victor  is  conceded  as  holding  first 
honors,  for  durability  and  general  efficiency,  all  things 
being  taken  into  consideration.

McGraw  Tires  uniformly  yield  full  mileage  because 
they  are  uniformly  perfect  in  build.  The  Duplex 
Method,  a McGraw  process  of  vulcanizing,  prevents 
defects  such  as  mold  pinches  and  buckles, — invisible 
flaws  which  are  a menace  to  tire  service. 

You  get  all  the  mileage  of  which  quality  materials 
are  capable  at  their  best,  and  you  get  it  without  ap- 
preciable variation. 

McGraw  Tires  wear  out — eventually.  But  they 

don’t  give  out.

McGRAW  FABRIC  and  CORD  TIRES 


When  you  buy  tires  you  want  dependable  service,  not  phenomenal 
mileage  once  in  a while,  but  four  good  tires  out  of  four.  You  do  not  want 
to  bargain  for  mileage  by  adjustments,  you  want  Assured  Service.  Mc- 
Graw  Tires  constructed  of  high  grade  material  and  structurally  right,  be- 
cause of  the  Duplex  Method,  afford  freedom  from  uncertainty  and  permit 
you  to  feel  as  confident  of  your  tires  as  of  your  motor.  They  deliver  the 
full  mileage  expected  and  yield  only  to  Accident  and  Abuse. 

THE  DUPLEX  METHOD  AND  WHAT  IT  DOES 


If  mileage  depended  solely  upon  material,  every  high  grade  tire  would 
deliver  six,  eight  or  even  ten  thousand  miles.  Mileage  comes  from  right 
materials  and  proper  Construction.  The  Duplex  Method  is  the  McGraw 
process  of  vulcanization  which  prevents  fabric  buckles  and  mould  pinches, 
the  menace  of  tire  life.  Compression  of  the  tire  in  the  vulcanizing  mould 
is  deferred  until  the  rubber  becomes  heated  and  plastic.  Then  when 
hydraulic  pressure  is  applied  to  vulcanize  the  tire,  the  rubber  is  not  stiff 
enough  to  pull  out  of  place.  Fabric  layers  set  smooth,  no  creases  form, 
pinches  and  buckles  are  avoided.  The  tire  is  a perfect  structure. 


TUBES 

The  same  careful  construction  and  high  grade  materials  which  make 
McGraw  tires  second  to  none  are  found  in  McGraw  Tubes.  Both  the  Red 
and  Gray  brands  are  thick,  tough,  and  non-deteriorating,  and  are  carefully 
vulcanized  to  preclude  the  possibility  of  pin  holes  or  slow  leaks.  Both  are 
carefully  packed  in  cartons  and  reach  the  consumer  in  perfect  condition. 
For  the  motorist  seeking  the  right  tire  equipment  we  recommend  McGraw 
Tires  and  Tubes,  confident  that  they  will  give  satisfaction  in  every  respect. 


GUARANTEE 

McGraw  fabric  tires  are  guaranteed  for  6,000  miles,  cords  for  8,000, 
against  mechanical  and  material  imperfections.  Any  McGraw  tire  failing 
to  render  the  guaranteed  mileage  under  normal  conditions  will  be  promptly 
adjusted  on  basis  of  obtained  mileage,  when  returned  to  us  transportation 
charges  prepaid.

It  is  a well  known  fact  that  a good 
Wood  Pump  furnishes  the  easiest  and 
best  method  ever  invented  for  raising 
water  from  shallow  wells.  Easiest  re- 
paired, cheaper  to  maintain,  by  far, 
than  are  Iron  Pumps. 

Washington  White  Spruce  from 
which  our  Wood  Pumps  are  made  is 
superior  to  any  other  wood,  is  prac- 
tically without  sap  and  is  entirely 
tasteless.

IRON  AGE 

No.  301.  Double  and  Single  Wlieel  Hoe.  A Com-

makes  the  tool  doubly  valuable. 

When  the  plants 
are  young,  the

No.  306.  Iron  Age  Combined  Hill  and  Drill  Seeder, 
Double  and  Single  Wheel  Hoe. 

Combination  tools  should  be  used  for  two  reasons. 
They  save  in  first  cost  and  they  take  less  room.  Gar- 
deners have  found  this  to  be  true  of  the  No.  306.  Of 
course  most  market  gardeners  prefer  to  have  separate 
tools  always  ready  to  do  each  separate  piece  of  work — 
drills,  wheel  hoes,  wheel  plows,  etc.  The  home  gar- 
dener who  has  enough  ground  to  warrant  it,  will  find 
the  No.  306  very  convenient.  Complete  with  all  tools

PULL-EASY 

ADJUSTABLE  WHEELED  CULTIVATOR 

A Big  Cultivator  for  a Big  Garden 

Look  at  this  photograph.  Can  you  imagine  a 
huskier  looking  garden  tool?  Yet  it  is  light,  weigh- 
ing only  twelve  pounds  complete,  while  other  makes 
of  wheeled  cultivators,  doing  the  same  work,  are  twice 
as  heavy. 

Because  of  its  lightness  and  low  balanced  frame,  it 
needs  no  tall,  ponderous  wheel  to  make  it  run  easily. 

The  Pull-Easy  Cultivator  is  instantly  adjustable  to 
cultivate  garden  rows  of  any  width  from  6 to  18 
inches.  The  frame  can  be  raised  or  lowered  to  suit 
the  height  or  convenience  of  the  operator. 

No  tools  are  needed  in  making  any  of  the  adjust- 
ments, other  than  the  thumb  and  finger,  to  loosen  or 
tighten  the  wide  winged  thumb  nuts.

Deere  Model  K Orchard  Harrow 


The  Spreader  with  the  Beater 
on  the  Axle 

All  Driving  Parts  on  the 
Rear  Axle 

No  Clutches  No  Chains 

No  Adjustments 

Easy  to  Eoad  Light  Draft 

Roller  Beai‘ings 

This  Spreader  represents  the  very 
latest  improvements  in  manure 
spreaders  and  is  simple  to  operate. 

Apron  absolutely  cannot  race.  Steel 
and  malleable  construction.  Load 
divided  on  all  four  wheels,  reducing 
draft. 

The  John  Deere  Spreader  is  all  that  its  name  im- 
plies. It  is  mechanically  right.  The  materials  used 
are  the  best  to  be  had.  It  does  its  work  better  and 
with  greater  ease  than  any  other  spreader  on  the 
market. 

What  the  user  appreciates  most,  however,  is  the 
simplicity  of  its  construction,  the  ease  with  which  it 
is  loaded,  the  light  draft  and  the  fine  quality  of  work 
it  does  under  all  conditions. 

If  interested  in  a Spreader  do  not  fail  to  send  for 
our  free,  colored  booklet,  fully  describing  the  John 
Deere. 


We  handle  a complete  line  of  Myers  Spray  Pumps, 
Power  Spray  Outfits  and  Fittings.  When  in  need  of 
spray  goods,  ask  us  for  prices  and  special  literature. 


This  harrow  is  constructed 
to  especially  meet  the  require- 
ments of  orchard  cultivation 
and  it  can  also  be  used  as  an 
ordinary  harrow.  The  gangs 
are  reversible 
for  in  or  out 
throw  and  are 
adjustable  in  or 
out  on  the  har- 
row frame  and  extension  frame. 

By  use  of  an  extension  frame  the  gangs  can  be 
spread  to  a distance  of  over  ten  feet  between  them. 
This  allows  cultivation  under  overhanging  branches. 


NEW  JOHN  DEERE  TWO  WAY 

With  the  Auto  Foot  Device 


SULKY  PLOW 


The  John  Deere  Sulky  Plow  rep- 
resents the  highest  type  of  material 
and  workmanship  that  is  possible 
to  procure.  The  entire  frame  and 
beams  are  constructed  entirely  of 
high  carbon  steel,  hence  are  very 
strong  and  durable. 

The  new  style  foot  landing  device 
is  the  most  satisfactory  ever  used 
and  by  its  use  and  the  horselift 
operated  by  foot  power,  the  plow 
can  be  operated  very  easily. 

Extra  wide  and  long  steel  frame. 
Track  wider  than  the  ordinary 
plow,  making  it  run  steadier  and

less  liable  to  overturn.

Note  these  John  Deere  Tractor 
Plow  features: 

They  can  be  used  with  any 
standard  tractor — hitch  and  depth 
control  levers  are  adjustable  to  suit 
the  tractor. 

The  bottom  is  the  heart  of  the 
plow— all  the  rest  of  the  plow  is 
built  merely  to  enable  the  bottom 
to  do  its  work.  The  right  kind  of 
a plow  bottom  makes  money  for 
the  owner.  It  lays  the  foundation 
for  the  right  kind  of  seed  bed.  The 
crop  yield  is  increased.  The  plow 
lasts  longer  and  pulls  lighter — a saving  in  actual  cost, 
power  and  trouble.  The  bottom  on  every  John  Deere 
plow  is  correctly  designed.  John  Deere  plow  success 
is  due  to  bottom  construction.  An  easy,  high  and 
level,  power-lift,  a pull  on  the  trip  rope,  raises  the 
plow;  another  pull  and  the  plows  enter  the  ground. 


JOHN  DEERE  TRACTOR  PLOW 


The  tractor  does  all  the  lifting,  and  the  rear  end  of 
the  plow  lifts  high  as  well  as  the  front.  There  is  no 
gathering  of  trash  when  turning. 

John  Deere  tractor  plows  can  be  backed — a stiff 
hitch  is  employed.  There  is  perfect  control  when 
pulling,  turning  or  backing.

One  working  of  the  DEERE  DEERE 

DOUBLE  ACTION  HARROW 
accomplishes  more  thorough  pul- 
verization of  the  soil  than  two 
separate  operations  because  with 
this  harrow  the  second  working 
takes  place  immediately  after 
the  first  and  the  partially  brok- 
en-up soil  does  not  have  time  to 
dry  out  and  is,  therefore,  more 
finely  pulverized  by  the  action  of 
the  second  section  of  the  har- 
row. We  recommend  using  plain 
discs  on  the  front  section  and 

cutaway  discs  on  the  rear  section  and  by  their  throw- 
ing in  opposite  directions  the  greatst  efficiency  in  a 
harrow  will  be  obtained.  The  front  section  can  be 
used  alone  any  time  desired.

Deere  J.  B.  Cultivator 

Parallel  Guide 


This  Combination  Harrow  has  a wood  and  steel 
frame  combined,  which  makes  it  much  more  durable 
than  an  all-wood  frame  harrow. 

It  is  the  most  durable  and  satisfactory  non-lever 
spring  tooth  harrow  on  the  market. 

16  Tooth  $13.00 

18  Tooth  14.00 


The  value  of  any  culti- 
vator to  the  'farmer  is 
governed  primarily  by  the 
good  qualities  that  show 
in  actual  use. 

The  Parallel  Guide 
secures  perfect  control 
and  thorough  cultivation 

in  narrow  and  crooked  rows  and  on  hillsides  as  well 
as  in  straight  rows. 

The  automatic  lift  relieves  the  operator  of  the  labor 
of  raising  the  rigs  and  balancing  the  cultivator;  en- 
ables him  to  give  his  entire  attention  to  work  requir- 
ing judgment  and  skill.  Depth  of  cultivation  is  regu- 
lated accurately. 

Shovels  penetrate  and  scour  because  they  are  al- 
ways in  same  position  to  the  line  of  draft. 

Hitch  is  of  the  pendant  type  and  adjustable.  Pull 
of  the  team  is  applied  directly  to  the  point  of  greatest 
resistance,  making  light  draft. 

Can  be  equipped  with  Disc  Hilling  Attachment  for 
potatoes.

TKe  John  Deere  No.  999  is  the 
most  accurate,  and  therefore  the 
most  desirable  corn  planter  ever 
designee'.  Its  extreme  accuracy  is 
obtained  by  means  of  its  new  and 
improved  drop.  That  is,  the  seed 
cell  and  cut-off  plates  are  so 
shaped  that  the  kernels  naturally 
lie  on  the  hopper  bottom  in  the 
best  position  to  move  toward, 
enter  and  rapidly  fill  the  cells. 

The  weight  of  the  corn  in  the  hop- 
per assists  rather  than  hinders  the 
filling  of  the  cells.  This  construc- 
tion secures  the  most  accurate 
drop  ever  put  on  any  corn  planter, 
regardless  of  whether  it  is  a fiat 
drop  or  an  edge  drop  planter. 

Fertilizer  Attachment 
This  attachment  is  easily  put  on 
without  changing  any  of  the  reg- 
ular parts  of  the  planter.  Easily 
removable  hoppers  have  increased 
capacity  and  are  so  constructed 
that  fertilizer  is  kept  agitated  and 
cannot  bridge.  More  and  Better  Com 

We  have  just  issued  an  attractive,  interesting  and 
instructive  booklet  which  more  fully  describes  these 
planters.  This  booklet  is  furnished  free  upon  request.

Improved  Robbins’  Potato 

The  100  Per  Cent  Potato  Planter 


In  the  Automatic  Corn  Planter  are 
Combined  all  the  latest  and 
best  improvements 
yet  made  in  implements  of  this 
character.  In  this  planter  the 
seed  is  delivered  from  the  dropper 
to  the  receptacle  at  the  bottom, 
which,  when  opened  by  pressing 
over  on  the  foot,  leaves  it  at  once 
at  the  depth  required,  avoiding 
the  trouble  found  with  all  hand 
planters  that  deliver  the  seed  di- 
rect from  the  dropper  to  the  soil. 
It  also  has  a most  convenient  at- 
tachment for  regulating  the  depth 
of  planting;  this  can  be  raised  or 
lowered  in  a moment  and  insures 
delivery  of  seed  at  precisely  the 
depth  required,  whether  the  soil 
be  hard  or  mellow. 


It  is  results  that  count  in  potato  culture — the  net 
return  in  dollars  and  cents.  At  the  same  time  there 
is  a lot  of  satisfaction  in  a clean  field  with  straight 
rows  and  every  hill  planted.  It  is  the  sign  of  a prac- 
tical farmer.  The  right  start  is  half  the  race  and  here 
it  is — an  automatic 

machine  planter  that  places  every 
seed  piece  exactly  as  you  want  it 
without  a miss  or  a double  and  without  injury.  The 
result  is,  every  hill  planted  at  the  right  depth,  the 
right  distance  apart  and  covered  level  or  ridged.  Has 
a very  positive  and  successful  fertilizer  attachment 
that  will  handle  all  kinds  of  commercial  fertilizers.

New  Deere  Hay  Loader 
For  Swath  or  Windrow 

An  Economy 


When  hay  is 
grown  in  any 
quantity  the 
saving  in  time, 
labor,  and  qual- 
ity of  product 
effected  by  a hay 
loader  will  often 
wipe  out  the  pur- 
chase price  the 
first  year  used 
and  thereafter 
become  a source 
of  clear  profit. 

A Desii'able  Loader 

The  most  desirable  hay  loader  is  the  one  that  com- 
bines to  the  greatest  degree,  durability,  capacity,  and 
efficiency.  This  describes  the  NEW  DEERE  LOADER 
in  a nut  shell.  It  is  very  durably  constructed,  yet 
light  in  weight,  will  pick  up  any  quality  and  condi- 
tion of  hay  either  from  the  swath  or  windrow  and  do 
it  as  clean  as  any  rake.

Johnston  Steel  Tedder 

Johnston  all-steel  Tedders  are  strong  and  durable,  and  work  most 
satisfactorily.  The  frame  is  steel,  the  w'heels  are  steel  and  double 
hubbed.  Three  sets  of  roller  bearings  on  the  main  shaft  insure  its 
light  running.  Three  tined  crucible  forks  are  used;  the  spring  on  the 
fork  is  located  behind  it,  and  does  not  come  in  contact  with  the  hay 
and  get  tangled  in  the  rod  and  spring.  Another  feature  is  the  spring 
balance  tilt.  The  Johnston  is  equipped  with  combination  pole  or 
shafts.  Made  in  6 fork  sizes.

cient to  rake  and  deliver  the  heav- 
iest crop  of  hay,  also  having  per- 
fect flexibility  when  striking  an 
obstruction. 

No  farmer  cutting  a quantity  of 
hay  can  afford  to  be  without  one, 
especially  if  using  a hay  loader. 

Leaves  the  hay  in  a long,  con- 
tinuous windrow  in  the  very  best 
condition  for  curing.  Will  shake 
water  from  grass  in  as  satisfactory 
way  as  a tedder.  Let  us  send  you

Hoover  Improved  Potato 
Digger 

There  is  probably  no  implement 
so  well  known  in  potato-growing 
sections  as  the  Hoover  Elevator 
Potato  Digger.  In  Aroostook 
County,  Me.,  where  more  potatoes 
are  grown  than  any  other  section 
in  New  England,  and  where  a po- 
tato digger  gets  a severe  trial,  the 
Hoover  has  given  perfect  satis- 
faction. Its  success  can  be  attrib- 
uted to  the  fact  that  it  was  built 
to  withstand  most  trying  condi- 
tions.

MONARCH  ENGINES 


Why  Make  a Motor  of  Yourself? 

Here's  a little  eng^ine  that  saves  you  from  the  sheer 
drudgery  of  the  many  backhreaking  jobs  about  the 
farm. 

A HANDY  HIRED  MAN 

The  Monarch  1%  H.  P.  engine  has  been  designed 
for  running  cream  separators,  churns,  washing  ma- 
chines, grindstones,  fanning  mills,  small  feed  cutters, 
for  pumping  water,  either  with  a direct  connected  jack 
or  by  pulley,  or  running  a line  shaft  with  two  or  three 
of  these  machines  attached. 

USES  GASOLINE  ONLY 

The  Monarch  1%  H.  P.  engine  uses  gasoline  only. 

The  engine  is  equipped  with  hit  and  miss  govetmor, 
which  is  recognized  by  engine  authorities  as  the  best 
for  small  engines.  This  governor  automatically  regu- 
lates the  fuel  supply  so  that  only  enough  gasoline  can 
be  drawn  into  cylinder  to  keep  the  engine  up  to  nor- 
mal speed. 

Specifications 

Model  N,  1%  H.  P.,  Speed  500,  3%x5  in.  Cylinder, 
16  in.  Fly  Wheel,  4x4  in.  Pulley,  Weight  225  lbs. 


Special  Throttling  Governor  Makes  Monarch 
Steady  as  Steam 

The  Monarch  throttling  governor  has  contributed 
largely  to  the  popularity  of  Monarch  engines.  A 
steady,  uniform  engine  speed  and  the  automatic  reg- 
ulation of  fuel  in  proportion  to  load  has  been  accom- 
plished. If  the  engine  is  operating  at  no  load  or  full 
load,  or  if  there  be  a varying  load,  the  Monarch  gov- 
ernor always  insures  a constant  uniform  steady  speed. 

Monarch  throttling  governor  engines  have  a smooth 
continuous  delivery  of  power  that  Is  delightful,  par- 
ticularly when  operating  dynamos  and  separators.

The  New  Sharpies  Suc':ion-Feed  Tubular 
Cream  Separator 

Since  the  beginning  of 
the  centrifugal  separator, 
its  one  great  province  has 
been  t o save.  Save 
cream,  save  butterfat, 
save  the  warmth,  fresh- 
ness and  value  of  skim- 
milk,  save  labor,  save 
quality  of  produce,  al- 
ways saving.  What  it 
saves  is  its  value.  It  has 
no  other  value. 

The  New  Sharpies  Suc- 
tion Feed  Separator  is 
the  onl}’’  one  which  auto- 
matically adjusts  the  flow 
of  milk  to  the  separating 
force.  It  simply  sucks  in 
enough  milk  so  that  the  speed  of  the  bowl  can  take 
care  of  it.  In  this  way,  it  makes  little  difference 
whether  you  turn  the  crank  under  speed  or  above 
speed,  you  will  alwa,ys  get  a dead  clean  skim.  Just 
set  cream  screw  and  the  cream  wi-l  contain  exactly 
the  same  percentage  of  butterfat. 

There  are  many  other  advantages  in  using  the  New 
Sharpies.  The  supply  can,  for  instance,  is  only  24 
inches  above  the  floor,  so  that  it  is  easy  to  All  from  the 
milk  can.  The  Tubular  bowl  contains  no  discs'  or 
other  contrivances  which  are  hard  to  wash  and  hard 
to  keep  clean.  The  New  Sharpies  is  easy  to  turn,  be- 
cause you  can  adjust  the  speed  according  to  your 
strength. 

The  New  Sharpies  is  thoroughly  described  and  illus- 
trated in  our  new  catalog,  and  we  \vili  be  very  glad  to

The  Sharpies  Mechanical  Milker 

Every  man  keeping  a 
fair  sized  dairy  should  be 
interested  in  this  milker 
for  the  following  reasons: 

First  — The  cost  of 
milking  cows  can  be  re- 
duced seventy-flve  per 
cent. 

Second — One  operator 
and  one  boy,  to  milk  and 
assist,  can  properly  milk 
one  hundred  cows  in  less 
than  t-wo  hours. 

Third  — The  improve- 
ment in  the  cow’s  condi- 
tion, resulting  from  the 
thorough,  quick,  gentle 
and  regular  work  of  the 
milker  will  induce  an  in- 
creased milk  production. 

Fourth  — A far  purer 
product;  lower  bacterial 
count  and  more  valuable  milk  is  assured,  because  all 
stable  air  is  entirely  excluded  and  the  milking  parts 
are  so  easily  and  thoroughly  cleansed. 

These  statements  are  based  on  close  and  extended 
observation  of  large  numbers  of  these  milking  ma- 
chines in  actual  operation.

Roofing 


Genasco 

Asphalt 

Shingles 


The  Vital  Element 

For  the  protection  of  your  building  against  de- 
struction by  weather — for  the  comfort  and  security 
of  its  interior — you  must  rely  on  the  roof.  It  is  the 
vital  element  of  the  stmcture. 

Safety  demands  that  the  roofing  be  leak-proof  and 
storm-tight — that  it  be  proof  against  rain  and  sun, 
heat  and  cold,  acid  and  alkali.  Economy  demands 
that  it  be  low  in  first  cost,  easy  to  apply  and  long 
lasting. 

All  these  exacting  requirements  are  met  completely 
by 

Genasco  Roll  Roofing 

Genasco  Roll  Roofing  ov/es  its  unsurpassed  water- 
proofing, wear  and  weather-resisting  qualities  to 
Trinidad  Lake  Asphalt — a product  seasoned  and 
toughened  under  tropical  heat  and  storms  for  ages. 

Genasco  is  a non-conductor  of  heat  and  cold,  there- 
fore keeps  buildings  cooler  in  summer  and  warmer 
in  winter.  It  is  not  affected  by  acid,  alkali  or  gases; 
is  easily  laid,  easily  repaired  when  damaged  and  lasts 
a lifetime. 


Look  on  Top  of  the  House 

Foundations  remain  secure  just  so  long  as  weather- 
tight,  leak-proof  roofs  cover  and  protect  them. 

The  top  of  your  house  is  the  vital  part.  It  denotes 
permanency  for  your  home  and  lasting  comfort — or 
leaks  and  dampness,  damage  to  furnishings  and 
health,  and  continued  discomfort. 

Genasco  Sealbac  Shingles 

resist  rain  and  snow,  sun  and  wind.  They  form  a 
lasting,  weather-proof  shelter  for  your  home. 

Genasco  Sealbac  Shingles  are  applied  in  the  same 
manner  as  ordinary  shingles.  Their  top  surface  of 
natural-colored  red  or  green  crushed  slate  is  firmly 
imbedded  in  asphalt. 

The  Sealbac  feature  originated  in  Genasco  Shingles, 
is  provided  by  a generous  coating  of  Trinidad  Lake 
Asphalt  Cement  on  the  under  surface.  This  not  only 
assists  in  the  closer  adhesion  of  the  different  shingles, 
but  it  protects  them  against  the  attacks  of  condensa- 
tion underneath. 

Genasco  Sealbac  Asphalt  Shingles  will  not  warp  ca* 
curl,  when  properly  laid. 


Where  to  Use  Genasco  Roll  Roofing 

Genasco,  because  of  its  economy,  long  life  and  ele- 
ment-resisting qualities,  is  the  ideal  roofing  for  fac- 
tories, foundries,  train  sheds,  railway  shops,  ware- 
houses, and  all  storage  places. 

For  farm  buldings,  Genasco  is  unquestionably  the 
greatest  roofing  value  ever  offered.  Its  long  life,  low 
cost  and  freedom  from  repair  expenses  commend  it 
especially  for  this  class  of  buildings. 

It  is  made  in  two  styles — smooth  surface  and  slate 
surface — to  meet  any  roofing  requirements. 


Phoenix  Ready  Roofing 

Our  second  best  grade  equal  to  any  smooth  surface

INTERNATIONAL  ELASTIC  CARBON  PAINT 


A practical,  scientific  blending  and  grinding  of  oils  and  pigments  making  a paint 
of  enduring  elasticity,  for  shingle,  felt,  canvas,  paper,  asphalt,  tin  and  iron  roofs, 
bridges,  machinery,  tanks,  iron  or  steel  buildings,  smoke  stacks,  boilers,  burners,  brick, 
tile,  concrete,  farming  tools,  wagons,  also  the  hulls  and  bottoms  of  vessels  and  boats. 

Our  International  Elastic  Carbon  Paint 

Combines  extreme  usefulness  and  economy,  because  it  is  thoroughly  elastic.  Used 
on  roofs  or  iron  work,  it  lasts  longer  than  any  other  for  the  reason  that  the  paint 
expands  and  contracts  in  keeping  with  the  surface  on  which  it  is  placed. 

This  paint  is  not  only  elastic  in  the  highest  degree,  but  It  has  a very  heavy  body 
which  fills  all  holes  and  eracks,  making  the  surface  perfectly  water-tight.  It  cannot 
peel,  crack  or  blister. 

In  fact,  it  is  the  ideal  paint  for  the  purpose  for  which  it  is  made.

under  a patented  formula — 
contains  no  lead  or  other  pois- 
onous pigments,  and  although 
applied  to  the  surface  like  an 
oil  paint,  when  dry  it  is  non- 
absorbent,  can  be  washed  with 
soap  and  water,  and  is  there- 
fore sanitary.

C ompr  i s e s 
three  individ- 
ual lines  of 
household  fin-

The  idea  of  making  Varnishes  100  Per  Cent.  Pure, 
and  of  advertising  the  fact  on  the  cans  in  which  Mar- 
tin’s 100  Per  Cent.  Pime  Varnishes  are  sold  all  over 
the  world  has  met  with  the  instantaneous  approval 
of  the  Architect  who  wishes  to  specify  the  best  of  ma- 
terials, and  the  Master  Painter  whose  reputation  de- 
pends just  as  much  on  the  materials  he  uses  as  it 
does  on  his  workmanship.  The  property  owner  v/ho 
believes  in  Pure  Wool  Clothes — Pure  Pood — Pure 
Linseed  Oil  and  Pure  Paint,  has  been  so  eager  to  at 
last  get  Varnish  satisfaction,  that  our  business  has 
tripled  and  quadrupled  in  a very  short  time,  and  Mar- 
tin’s 100  Per  Cent.  Pm’e  Varmishes  enjoy  a very  com- 
plete distribution  throughout  the  country.
